2019 Forcepoint Cybersecurity Predictions

Innovation thrives when people can collaborate in a trusted manner, leveraging data creatively and freely through technology. This intersection is also the point of greatest vulnerability for your enterprise and the primary source of security breaches driving cyber risk to all-time highs.

In 2019, attackers will stop at nothing to steal our identities, evade detection through new techniques, and bring disruption to our doorsteps. The stakes are high, the world more connected than we could have ever imagined.

Join our webcast now, where we’ll examine topics such as:

- How attacks on industrial IoT could lead to widespread power outages
- When credential theft moves to cloning your face to bypass biometric authentication
- What happens in a world incentivized to commit intellectual property theft at scale

Join Forcepoint's Raffael Marty, VP Research & Intelligence, and Carl Leonard, Principal Security Analyst, for a webcast discussing the most pressing cybersecurity issues – and what you can do to protect against them.

Today’s digital transformation initiatives frequently begin with moving applications and data to the cloud. But traditional networking and security infrastructure, such as backhauling data from remote locations to central offices over MPLS lines, can’t keep up. Fortunately, new approaches that also move connectivity and security to the cloud are rapidly overcoming these hurdles. Technologies such as direct-to-cloud SD-WAN and site-to-site VPNs dramatically cut the cost of connectivity. However, they put pressure on other parts of the organization to adopt new ways of defending each site against internet intruders, protecting the use of web content, and securing data stored in cloud apps.

In this webcast, we’ll discuss a new, integrated approach to connectivity and security. Used by enterprises and government agencies around the world to manage as many as 1,500 sites from a single console, Forcepoint’s branch security solution enables highly distributed organizations to improve productivity, reduce costs, better manage risk, and streamline compliance.

Microsoft Office 365 includes native security at various levels, depending on your license. But is that enough? Osterman Research discovered that over 73% of organizations will choose to either supplement or replace native Office 365 security with third-party solutions by 2019.

In this 30-minute session, CEO and founder Mike Osterman will discuss their findings and what’s driving these organizations’ decisions, including:

- Organizations’ key priorities for securing O365
- Barriers to adoption and full migration of users
- Identifying key third-party solutions like Email Security, CASB, and DLP that can help mitigate security gaps and lower TCO

For most organizations, compliance is a bottomless pit of cost and effort. Too many infrastructure components and configuration points, too much data and too many places to put it—there are just too many places for threats to hide.

In this session, Forrester Vice President and Principal Analyst Andras Cser will share how to prioritize security and compliance efforts. Specific topics include:

- How your auditors are behaving
- Why risk-based prioritization is the only way to find threats
- The importance of context
- Forrester’s recommendations and best practices

Watch this webcast and learn how to make your organization’s journey to the cloud as safe as possible.

Some approaches to information security simply won’t deliver the results required for effective governance. Addressing head-on the primary issue—risk—is the key to a successful strategy.

In this session, Doug Landoll, CEO of information security compliance consulting firm Lantego, will discuss how to take a risk-first approach to addressing information security. Specific topics include:

CASBs (Cloud Access Security Brokers) can provide visibility and protection for the myriad of sanctioned and unsanctioned cloud applications being used by employees in organizations today. Office 365 is undoubtedly one of the most popular, with most business-grade email and collaboration now taking place in this cloud environment.

In this session, CEO and Osterman Research founder Mike Osterman will discuss how a CASB can help secure Office 365 and review the solutions from Microsoft and Forcepoint. He will:

CASBs (Cloud Access Security Brokers), or CSGs (Cloud Security Gateways), are part of the rapid rise of emerging security technologies designed to enable digital transformation. With these solutions, organizations can experience the benefits of innovation and collaboration that cloud applications bring while maintaining visibility and control of their data.

In this webcast, CEO and Osterman Research founder Mike Osterman will share the results of his survey on how organizations are using, or planning to implement, CASB solutions. The survey’s main focus points include:

Innovation thrives when people can collaborate in a trusted manner, leveraging data creatively and freely. This intersection of people interacting with data and technology will also drive cyber risk to all-time highs, according to new insights from Forcepoint researchers and data scientists.

Driving Office 365 adoption is an important goal—87% of IT professionals say it’s a top priority -- yet, few have fully migrated their users and apps, with security, regulatory and resource challenges often the cause. Security companies too, face these same fundamental challenges. As a recent Office 365 adopter, Forcepoint has first-hand experience securely migrating users to the cloud.

Join Forcepoint’s CIO and Chief Scientist as they share learnings, surprises and insights from our own migration.

A traditional threat-centric approach focuses on prevention and detection of attacks that exploit vulnerabilities in the software. The cloud environment abolishes the “walls” that helped us feel more protected. Cloud application security requires a new user-centric approach that respects the dynamic nature of users and how they interact with data, enabling organizations to recognize and respond to real risks.

You will learn:

* How user-centric security is different than traditional threat-centric security
* How organizations can make the transition to user-centric security
* Forcepoint’s vision for securing the organization in the future

Today, the average enterprise customer uses over 1,000 cloud applications, including SaaS (Software as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), or even homegrown cloud applications. To mitigate security risks, IT leaders need to ensure assets housed in these cloud environments are secure.

According to a recent Forcepoint security survey, 56% of business decision-makers stated that it’s difficult or very difficult to promote innovation through a move to cloud while maintaining corporate security and governance.

The art of managing cloud application risk today is critically centered on making the invisible visible, while also applying the necessary control and governance. Watch this webcast to learn how Forcepoint CASB, along with DLP for Cloud Applications and Web Security solutions, can help with:

It’s become increasingly difficult to identify the malware components of advanced threats, mostly due to the evolution of evasion tactics and technology by criminal and nation-state threat actors.

Forcepoint Advanced Malware Detection (AMD) technology is unmatched in security efficacy. Even highly evasive threats are revealed through Deep Content Inspection of activity at multiple levels, dormant code, and other indicators often overlooked by other sandbox technologies.

Hackers are already scheming their next wave of targets: will they replicate the colossal Equifax breach and cash in on reams of personal data or freeze up IoT devices simply in order to disrupt critical systems?

Distributed networks are the new reality of today’s mobile, global workforce. Transforming cloud connectivity and security within these networks is the new challenge. The right connectivity and security through digital transformation can provide important benefits, including increased productivity and improved user experience at a much lower cost, whether it’s for accessing cloud applications or legacy applications. Being able to use the same policies, the same tools for visualizing what's happening on a network, and extending that seamlessly into the cloud will help security teams understand use of and manage risk.
